New Zealand's most exciting emerging race mare Levante will bypass the Telegraph at Trentham to add more glamour to Karaka Million night at Ellerslie. That sets up a potential clash with the country's most improved race mare in Showoroses.
The 4-year-olds provided some of the fireworks at Ellerslie's huge New Year's Day meeting, with Showoroses leading all the way in the $100,000 Rich Hill Mile, while Levante roared home from last for a stunning third in the Railway.
Co-trainer Ken Kelso confirmed Levante won't be heading south for the Telegraph.

'Frodo' flies to victory in Kevin Pratt Memorial at Awapuni


Rider Troy Harris had a lapful of horse as he angled into the clear at the 300m where Tavi Mac dashed to the front and cleared out from his rivals, eventually posting a one and a half-length winning margin over Callsign Mav with southern mare Kiwi Ida taking third.
Sharrock makes no secret of the affection he holds for his pint-sized poster boy.
“He has a special place in my heart, this horse,” Sharrock said.
“He’s not the best horse I’ve ever trained, but he is the toughest I’ve ever laid a hand on.
“The tenacity he shows every time he lines up is just amazing.
